We were originally made in God's image, and in our acting out the great and surpassing love of God, toward each other, we may faintly reflect that divine love which sought us, and purchased us back from sin.
Great post bro aron.

And in a sense, when we act loving we make the kingdom of God real on the earth. And vis-à-vis, when we act hateful, we make the kingdom of Satan real.
